Copenhagen is known for the historical buildings and architecture. The oldest one is inside the city, the newest one is in Ørestad (take metro towards Vestamager). In Copenhagen are a lot of small cafees and bars. Copenhageners LOVE to go to these cafees to drink fancy coffee like cafe latte or espresso. The cafees always sells their food and coffee to over prize. A normal cafe latte can easily cost 10 $.
Besides the historical sites and castles (Rosenborg, Amalienborg, Christiansborg) and the churches, you can also spend your time at the beach, which is easy to reach on bicycle. You can also take a swim in the harbor (Islands Brygge Havnebad). If you like nature a trip om bike to Amager is a good choice.

As it seldom gets really hot in Copenhagen, you can go any month outside the winter season.
Two of the popular attractions - the amusement park Tivoli and the so-called Freetown of Christiania - are seasonal: Tivoli is only open during summer (with two small exceptions around Halloween and X-mas), and Christiania has many time more inhabitants in the summer compared to winter.
The Hotel d’Angleterre is thought to be the most luxurious hotel in Copenhagen. The Phoenix Hotel and the Radisson SAS are also of a similar standard.
The airlines offering cheap flights to Copenhagen will depend on the starting location. Some operators that fly out of Copenhagen include Thomas Cook Airline Scandinavia, Norwegian Air Shuttle and Scandinavian Airlines.

0hr 50min CPH to HAM by a nonstop flight operated by Cimber Air or SAS - Scandinavian Airlines System.
If you mean from an tourism point of view:
Historically: Home to writer H. C. Andersen (from age 14). Which is probably why the statue of the Little mermaid (a character from one of his fairytales) has become the symbol of Copenhagen.
Current time : Firstly 'Tivoli' amusement park which is special due to its historical feel to it and it's unique location in the very center of town (right next to the town hall). Secondly - and as long as it lasts: The so-called free town of 'Christiania', which are a former navy barracks that was taken over by hippie squatters in the 1971 and turned in to an alternative community with a.o. open sales and use of drugs.
